I have a 60gb ipod that needs a new battery. I tried to put in a battery from a 30gb video, and i got the ipod icon with the sad face and exclamation mark. So, the ipod had a 30gb battery wit ha 60gb hard drive. Could this be because the 30gb battery doesnt give it enough power to power the hard drive?

Thanks,

Did it work after you reinstalled the original battery? Maybe you did a crummy job hooked the hard drive up.
